This book investigates the self-concept of the students with
intellectual disabilities who were placed in specialist and mainstream
educational settings in South Australia. It gains insights into what
students with intellectual disabilities felt about themselves and
their achievements across the different dimensions of self-concept. It
is divided into two stages of execution. In Stage 1, the Tennessee
Self-Concept questionnaire was administered to students with
intellectual disabilities. In Stage 2, interviews were conducted with
students with intellectual disabilities, their parents and teachers.
These data reflected a range of viewpoints from which to examine the
research questions. These findings have implications for teachers,
special educators, policy makers and a range of professionals in the
education and special education sector in enabling greater
understanding of the problems experienced by these students and
pointing to modifications and improvements in the services for these
students.
